San Antonio police detained two men after they got into a scuffle with a police officer who suffered minor injuries in the fight.

Around 10 a.m. Sunday, police were called to a home in the 200 block of Eleanor Avenue for a cutting, officials said. One man, who had self-inflicted wounds, started to fight with the responding officer, said Sgt. Javier Salazar. Then, a second man got involved in the fight, Salazar said, but no one sustained serious injuries.

The officer suffered minor injuries — scrapes and cuts, Salazar said. He was taken to University Hospital as a precaution.
